The font of all knowledge concerning the memorials is Tilshead resident Frank Druce BEM (formerly King’s Royal Irish Hussars) who played a pivotal role in sourcing and establishing both the 8th Battalion Parachute Regiment (initially) and Glider Pilot Regiment (GPR) (subsequently) memorials and was the driving force for the memorial project.
